Suppressing the ectoplasm polluters in the city and capturing a polluter for experimentation obviously do not conflict and can be done simultaneously.
The situation of the former is not optimistic. In just one hour, the number of ectoplasm polluters in the city quickly increased from 23 to 118. They wandered on the blocked streets, resisting the pressure of the Templars and the Sheriffs. Shooting, breaking into buildings on both sides of the street and attacking residents.
On the other hand, the experiment also went smoothly. Since the scientific research materials were obtained from the abandoned subway station, all the condition parameters were readily available. The priests only needed to repeat the experiment according to the data.
Experiments have proven that anyone who is attacked by an ectoplasm polluter will be transformed into an ectoplasm polluter within 20-30 minutes. The clinical characteristic is that a translucent spiritual figure spreads out from behind, which contains a large amount of extraordinary power. Significantly improves the anti-kill ability of the Defiler's body.
In terms of attacking targets, ectoplasm polluters also show a high degree of selectivity:
For "pure-blooded humans" who have never ingested spiritual substances, spiritual polluters treat them with disdain and have no intention of attacking them at all.
For ordinary people who have not upgraded but have ingested spirituality (such as killing or eating extraordinary creatures), spiritual polluters have shown a certain interest in attacking.
This attack mainly uses the vines of the spirit body behind to pierce the opponent. It will not bleed or cause actual wounds, but will cause it to gradually transform into a spirit polluter.
For extraordinary beings with levels, spiritual polluters have a strong desire to attack.
There are not many ways to kill the ectoplasmic polluter, and physical attack is the least efficient method. Autopsy proves that even if the ectoplasmic polluter loses too much blood, its mutated spirit body will replace the blood to maintain life.
On the contrary, energy attacks have better effects, such as flames, electric shocks or lasers, which directly bombard the translucent spirit spreading out from behind the target, effectively killing it.
After the spiritual body behind them was annihilated, the contaminated humans also showed different symptoms. If the target was an ordinary person before being contaminated, he would suffer some physical and mental damage, but it would not be fatal; if he was an extraordinary person, it would be almost He lost control and died on the spot.
So the result is already obvious. The ectoplasmic tree is a special weapon specially developed by extreme humanist forces to deal with extraordinary beings.
So after the level 4 martial law order was issued, a fierce quarrel immediately broke out at the cardinal meeting over how to deal with the large number of spiritual polluters in the city.
How many people are ordinary people without rank, but have received spiritual knowledge? Raphael roughly estimates that this number accounts for about 30% of the total population of Solomon City, but they are the richest group of people. .
Because only the rich would buy the meat of extraordinary creatures to taste it.
Among the cardinals, those from Italian and wealthy families like Licinius, Medici, and Este naturally strongly opposed the appeasement policy and insisted on using maximum force to suppress it.
Secondly, there are those bishops who come from ordinary families. They are self-confident but do not have any spirituality, and they have no relatives who have eaten extraordinary creatures. Therefore, most of them try to demonstrate the difficulty of suppressing spiritual polluters from various angles, and the most recent The key point is "As long as you are not an extraordinary person, you can be saved from being contaminated."
It was just a little trauma, nothing serious.
Of course, although they didn't say it, the subtext was also very obvious that as long as this thing spreads, it will inevitably weaken and kill extraordinary forces outside the Holy See. This is actually beneficial to the Holy See. After all, Italy
Extraordinary people are added the least.
Such remarks were strongly criticized by cardinals from wealthy families. What does it mean to be "good for the Holy See"? How come those of us who have absorbed spirituality have become "bad for the Holy See"? Do we deserve to be attacked by polluters?
hit?
The debate lasted about ten minutes, and Innocent showed his papal majesty and stopped everyone's quarrel with a wave of his hand:
I am the Pope, and now I order to suppress it immediately with the maximum military force. You all listen to me.
As a result, more Holy Guards and Templars quickly took action, and the restoration of military-related production lines was given a higher priority, and they began to resume work with all their strength.
On the streets of Solomon City, it suddenly began to rain lightly. The water splashed on the extinguished neon lights and the holographic projection base, creating a curl of mist.
The black steel jungle was immersed in this mist, like the corpse of a giant beast. Fierce gunfire echoed between heaven and earth, accompanied by the hoarse and incomprehensible roar of the ectoplasmic polluter in the distance.
Everyone in Cangqing Sword stayed on the upper floor of the Licinius Building, looking at the dark sky outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. The patrolling police officer outside was broadcasting a broadcast, which roughly meant that some kind of biochemical weapon had escaped from the laboratory, and the Templars and
Sheriffs are conducting a cleanup, please stay home and don't go out.
"So we can't go out?" Mia lay on the edge of the swimming pool in boredom and complained, "It's so boring. What is the ectoplasm polluter they are talking about?"
"Those are monsters contaminated by mutations, just like the greenskins we encountered in the Principality of Swabia before." Nora walked in from the outside and put the information collected by the Licinius family on the table.
"The relevant information is here, let's take a look."
Everyone took the information and read it.
"Tree of ectoplasm?" Sheila frowned and thought.
"Looking at this characteristic, it is obvious that it was artificially created specifically to target extraordinary beings." Medea sneered, "However, extraordinary beings cannot be wiped out with human sea tactics."
"Especially after the third round of demonic tide rising, the level limit has been raised to lv.20. Demigods can now freely expand their fields. How can such things be eliminated by relying on sheer numbers? At best, Italy will be added to the list.
Just clean up the peninsula."
"Of course it's impossible if we just rely on siege." Nora pulled out a document from the bottom, "Look at this."
"Convergent evolution?" Sheila and Medea read the words above.
"Remember the filthy lord who once ravaged the Principality of Bavaria?" Nora said with a worried look, "At that time, the upper limit of the demonic tide was only lv.10, and the opponent was a lv.19 transcendent who tried to swallow a large number of living people.
With his spirituality, he can be promoted to level 20 and cross the threshold of demigods."
"The aggregation and accumulation of spirituality will lead from quantitative changes to qualitative changes, and the spiritual matter polluters are similar. Although there has not been any observation of the gathering of these polluters, it is speculated from the existing data..."
"At some point, these polluters may try to gather together and fuse the spiritual essence behind them with each other, thus turning into an extremely high-level mutant extraordinary creature."
